you actually have to know how to use FL and Reason to make something halfway decent, just like with any other piece of gear. Which tells me havent tried either one.

Hey, little kids don’t follow these dopes.

The funniest thing is when people talk like they invented music. bklyn2cali, who the f**k do you think you are to tell people what they should and should not do? Or what is and isn’t something? Did you create music? Did you create anything? No.
The best thing about hip-hop is that traditional musicians aren’t the best at making the real sh*t. Traditional musicians make pop-rap, radio rap, whatever you wanna call it. No clasically trained musician could have made “Lookin At The Front Door” for example–it’s an entirely different mind set and practice. I mean, listen to Del’s albums before he studied music theory and after. There’s a clear winner there, but don’t make me say it.
Electronic music is different, just accept it. The only reason people get mad is that they can’t understand or aren’t good at it (both usually coexist). I get a feeling from hip-hop music that i can’t get from any other music; so you telling me the guys making it aren’t musicians simply exposes you for the flimsy, antiquated, condescending person that you clearly are. The world doesn’t revolve around your inadequacies pal, and if the fact that so many people find joy in something pisses you off, then perhaps you should consider listening to the music that makes YOU happy and stop trying to ruin it for everyone else.
Go tell stories about how you walked 20 miles to school in your day, and gum cost 5 cents, and real musicians were real musicians if you must, but it doesn’t make you any less of a dick.

I use an MPC for alot of reasons. The biggest reason is workflow. If you want to hear one of my tracks, in which I used only the 1000, click my name.

i think everyone is debating over the wrong damn original post. this thread was originally about “instant” production solutions, and not hardware vs. software.

what i caught from the GRAPHIC, was the solutions like: “hey! i got this piece of software and all these loops… i’m a producer/beatmaker now by placing this green loop over here, then taking this blue loop and putting it here…” whollla! instant production!

kinda like coloring by numbers… it doesn’t quite make you an artist, HOWEVER, you could be a damn good colorist.

ha ha – everybody still fighting over hardware vs. software – seriously, this debate goes back to about 99′ when rebirth first came out and cats started using acid as well – remember that? – whatever, who cares?

I just got my upright bass back – nothing but wood and metal, no electronics, no operating system – and I use Reason -I also have a garage full of records, hardware and instruments, so whatever, put that in your pipe and smoke it……….
